Weekend Scoring Frenzy

<p>Teams either finished up their regular season or started their district tourneys this past weekend. This weekend showcased the ability to score as offenses were shooting extremely well. They were doing it from behind-the-arc, free-throw line, drives to the bucket and more. Let’s take a look at some of the recent results. </p> <p><strong>Triple D</strong><strong>igits!</strong></p> <p>The Cowboys meant business by hitting triple digits in the first round of the district tournament defeating Sho-Ban 107-32. </p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="919703" first="James" last="Bodily"] led the way with 27 points. [player_tooltip player_id="969915" first="Garrett" last="Leavitt"] had a career-high 20 points, [player_tooltip player_id="969907" first="Logan" last="Corta"] poured in 14 and Brett Freeman added 13.</p> <p>It was a total team effort by always making the extra pass. They were out there looking for one another and feeding off of the play they were showcasing. </p> <p>Adrien Honena led Sho-Ban with nine points. The Chiefs started strong, but their 15 first-quarter points were nearly half of their output for the whole game.</p> <p><strong>Rockland Cruises in Round 1</strong></p> <p>The effects of a week-and-a-half layoff showed for Rocklan, who never quite got their offense in gear still handily beat Grace Lutheran in the first round of the district tournament 41-11. </p> <p>The team looked sluggish coming off of the layoff but the team was there to battle and still dominate defensively. It will take a monstrous effort against North Gem but the defense showed up to present some optimism.</p> <p>The game saw a rarity in the fourth quarter, with neither team scoring in the period as the Bulldogs coasted to the finish line. Is this a sign for Rockland? Whatever it may be their going to have to score to have a chance this week. </p> <p>Braden Permann led Rockland with 10 points. Gavin Spencer had six for Grace Lutheran.</p> <p><strong>Mackay Handles Business</strong></p> <p>The Miners’ boys basketball team kicked off the 1AD2 District 6 tournament with a 78-36 win over Leadore.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="969909" first="Kyle" last="Peterson"] tallied 28 points and [player_tooltip player_id="919681" first="Chase" last="Green"] posted 27 for the Miners, who took a 20-6 lead into the second quarter and cruised the rest of the way.</p> <p>Wyatt Warner added 16 points for Mackay.</p> <p>Watersprings also advanced to the game by putting up triple digits! They even held their opponents Clark County under 10 with a 103-9 victory. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
